Darek Kominek, marketing manager at Matrikon commented, “Growing demand for products that easily interconnect and share data in meaningful and effective ways is accelerating the emergence of the Internet of Things. To meet this demand, vendors of networked devices in all sectors of the economy - from industrial to commercial and consumer sectors – need to make their products easy to integrate in a secure manner.”

Kominek further added, “While the OPC UA specification from the OPC Foundation defines how this can be accomplished, Matrikon provides vendors with the means to quickly and easily implement OPC UA directly in their products even when memory and processing resources are limited.”

As the leading OPC vendor, MatrikonOPC now makes it possible to securely access historical data using the OPC Security Gateway - providing customers with the data access they need with significantly reduced risk," said Darek Kominek Marketing Manager at MatrikonOPC products.

OPC Security Gateway Features and Benefits include:

OPC Tunneller’s lossless data compression uses less than 10 percent of the bandwidth normally needed by regular OPC traffic based on DCOM. Such low data overhead is optimal for use in limited data bandwidth applications that involve the use of satellites, modems, radios, and other bandwidth-limited communications. In addition, OPC Tunneller keeps OPC data confidential by encrypting it. This approach provides users with an additional layer in the defense-in-depth cyber security model.

"The ability to access your data whenever and wherever you need is crucial in today’s automation solutions, especially when it comes to alarm data. Plant operators and engineers need ready access to such data to prevent down time, costly maintenance, or outright disasters. OPC Tunneller provides users the most stable and secure connectivity possible to their real-time, historical, and alarm and event OPC data sources,” said Darek Kominek Marketing Manager at MatrikonOPC products.

• Communicates over cross domains and workgroups
• Direct connections to A&E Historians
• Low bandwidth utilization
• ... and many more

OPC Redundancy Broker is designed for OPC applications that require the use of redundant hardware or software to achieve the highest degree of communication reliability. ORB can even be retrofitted to current systems because it functions with any OPC server DA, HDA, or A&E, regardless of vendor.

From simple communication-failure based failovers to powerful condition based failovers - OPC Redundancy Broker has the functionality needed in virtually any redundancy application. Easy to use, OPC Redundancy Broker guides users with intuitive step-by-step configuration choices that help them best protect their systems in minutes. OPC Redundancy Broker offers three types of redundant pairs: Hot, Warm, or Cold between the primary and secondary OPC Servers. It handles all configuration and fail-over issues automatically. It also provides additional monitoring capability in the form of watchdog tags that trigger a fail-over between the Primary and Secondary OPC Servers. These watchdog tags can be configured based on the OPC item’s Value, Value change, Quality, or Timestamp. The combination of these features minimizes the fault-tolerance of the system and promotes maximum system redundancy.

"Customers turn to us because control system downtime is not an option. MatrikonOPC products are reliable and easy to use helping users to quickly and correctly deploy the software knowing their systems are properly protected. With the newly added features in OPC Redundancy Broker - everyone using OPC can now protect their systems to maximize up-time and profitability." said Sean Leonard, Matrikon’s vice president of OPC products.

Edmonton, Alberta – February 8th , 2010 - Microsoft and MatrikonOPC, members of the OPC Foundation, are excited to announce that they will be showcasing OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) Connectivity for Microsoft StreamInsight at this year’s OPC Foundation Training Seminars.

The OPC Foundation Road seminars bring industrial and process professionals together in a forum to learn about OPC technology and discuss innovative OPC applications and products.  MatrikonOPC and Microsoft will be demonstrating the OPC UA Adaptor for Microsoft StreamInsight at all of this year’s OPC Foundation Training Seminars. Microsoft StreamInsight provides a low-latency complex event processing (CEP) platform that enables organizations to derive insights from streaming data in near real-time for industrial process control scenarios. It is designed to allow industry specific solution developers to utilize proven, flexible, and familiar Microsoft technology and create innovative products to meet the demands of their industry.

Torsten Grabs, Senior Program Manager at Microsoft Corporation said “The MatrikonOPC OPC UA Adaptor is a great example of innovative thinking promoted by Microsoft StreamInsight. We’re happy for the opportunity to demonstrate with MatrikonOPC how OPC UA technology and StreamInsight work together to provide value to the wide-spread community of OPC users.  The OPC Foundation Seminars are an excellent opportunity for technology partners like Microsoft and MatrikonOPC to talk directly with the end users and better understand how our products add value in their industry.”

As components of service oriented architectures (SOA), StreamInsight and OPC UA are a natural fit.  MatrikonOPC provides universal connectivity to countless data sources and StreamInsight analyzes streams of event data and helps respond to patterns in these event streams.  The combination of standardized data connectivity and complex event processing can be applied to many industrial scenarios, including:

• Asset-based monitoring and aggregation of machine-born data.
• Sensor-based observation of plant floor activities and output.
• Critical alarm analysis including ‘floods’ of multiple thousands of data events per second.
• Safety critical event and alert generation such as turbine or compressor trips.
• Proactive, condition-based maintenance on key equipment.
• Low-latency analysis of aggregated data (windowed and log-scales).
• Reliable aggregation of data samples across wireless sensor networks
• Immediate response to variations in energy or water consumption, to minimize or avoid outages or other disruptions of service.

To learn more on how OPC UA universal connectivity and StreamInsight complex event processing technology can be applied in your business, visit MatrikonOPC and Microsoft at the next OPC Foundation Technical Seminar.  Date and location details can be found here.

“OPC is a great standard for sharing device data with multiple applications, but copying common calculations across many  software applications can take up a lot of time. It can also result in two different versions of the truth because of  differences in calculation between software packages.  With this release, our new OPC Servers provide the horsepower necessary to do calculations at the server level instead of the application level. It’s never been easier,” said Sean Leonard, Vice President of OPC at Matrikon.

MatrikonOPC is proud to announce that its OPC Framework has successfully completed the OPC Foundation’s highest level of testing - Independent Certification. All MatrikonOPC Servers are based on this Framework and now are all certified.

Tom Burke, President and Executive Director of the OPC Foundation, explained that "with Independent Certification, MatrikonOPC Servers can be counted on to provide the most secure industrial-strength connectivity. The OPC Foundation expects its members to follow the path MatrikonOPC has paved in achieving Independent Certification."

"This certification process is quite extensive and ensures we deliver the utmost quality product to our clients. At the end of the day, our clients expect secure, reliable, and intuitive products from us and we deliver on that expectation, " said Sean Leonard, Vice President, OPC Products at Matrikon.

Independent Test Lab OPC Certification is the process of ensuring that applications meet the standards specified by the OPC Foundation. OPC Certification requires extensive testing to ensure true interoperability. The testing means multi-vendor system interoperability is guaranteed. If your OPC products are not certified, you need to ask your vendor what sort of guarantees they offer.
